<br />97 <br /> <br />EXISTING AND PLANNED NON-MOTORIZED TRANSPORTATION <br />NETWORK <br />This section addresses network needs for walking and bicycling within St. <br />Anthony Village. This section also addresses the needs of people using <br />wheelchairs and assistive mobility devices such as mobility scooters, as they are <br />considered pedestrians. <br />Enhancing the non-motorized elements of the St. Anthony Village transportation <br />system is a key goal in terms of improving transportation sustainability in the City <br />and in the region. This approach gives residents an alternative to driving, <br />supports transportation options for people who do not have consistent access to <br />a personal vehicle, and encourages healthy activities and lifestyles. <br />This section includes information on the existing non-motorized transportation <br />network within St. Anthony Village, connections to land use planning, the planned <br />local non-motorized transportation network, and the planned regional non- <br />motorized transportation network. This section also includes recommendations <br />for intersection improvements and design best practices. <br />Existing Non-Motorized Transportation Network <br />The non-motorized transportation network in St. Anthony Village is comprised <br />primarily of sidewalks and one regional trail.
